In this paper, the researcher will discuss the possibility of the integration of ChatGPT as the innovative pedagogical tool in teaching music history and how the proposed tool can increase engagement, accessibility, and personalization. The research methodology was a mixed approach and 120 undergraduate learners were used in analyzing the performance of AI-assisted instruction in developing comprehension, creativity, and critical thinking skills in learning historical music. The quantitative findings showed a 78 percent enhancement in conceptual knowledge, a 64 percent growth in attending class and 71 percent higher research output as compared to the conventional lecture based approaches. According to qualitative responses, 82 percent of students felt that ChatGPT was a good addition to understanding complicated historical accounts and composer influences, and changes in style. Nevertheless, issues of factual accuracy (15) and over-dependence (9) were also identified and thus there is a necessity to have a guiding AI use in a structured curriculum. This paper has gone further to explore how ChatGPT can be used as a co-teacher who can be used to simulate historical conversations, create contextual analysis of period of music, and facilitate cross-cultural learning activities that are inclusive of all. It is also presented with ethical and pedagogical concerns, which provides information systems on how responsible AI may be introduced in arts education. In conclusion this paper has demonstrated that when properly guided, ChatGPT will make the study of music history a dynamic and inquisitive experience that unites old and new in a manner that embraces both the traditional academia and intelligent technology.
